Importance of Sketching

• Sketching is used to speed up visual problem solving. Sketching can generate many options very rapidly.
• Don't edit while you sketch.  Sketching is about idea and concept finding.  Sketch out freely.  Many individual sketches might later be used together in part or parcel.

• Sketching helps develop your craft.

• Sketches are important communication tools. A drafted drawing implies a more advanced state of planning which intimidates the client from making suggestions. They are afraid to make suggestions because it appears that they have already invested too much in the plan. This can result in inferior design and poor satisfaction with the end product. A sketch implies an early state of planning and designing which invites input and participation on the part of the client. The resulting product is more likely to be appreciated and understood by the client.
